Bill Haney, the father and trainer of Devin Haney, made it clear that he was not impressed with Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz’s recent victory over WBA light welterweight champion Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero. He mentioned that the outcome was expected and that it was only a matter of time before Rolly lost the title. This attitude shows a certain level of underestimation towards Pitbull’s skills and capabilities in the ring.
It is evident from Bill Haney’s comments that he feels his son, Devin, is not getting the same level of praise and recognition from fans and the media as Pitbull Cruz did after his victory. Haney believes that his son has nothing to worry about when it comes to facing Pitbull in the ring. This lack of recognition for Devin Haney’s skills may stem from the fact that he is viewed as a pure boxer with no knockout power, making his fights less exciting and memorable for fans.
One of the most striking comments made by Bill Haney was his backhanded compliment regarding Pitbull Cruz’s power. He mentioned that even his daughter could knock someone out if their chin is exposed, implying that Cruz’s power was not as impressive as it seemed. This comment not only undermines Pitbull’s capabilities but also comes across as disrespectful towards his opponent.
Bill Haney’s remarks towards Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero also displayed a lack of sportsmanship. He made a crude remark about Romero’s future prospects, suggesting that he should pursue a career as a male stripper. This kind of comment not only reflects poorly on Bill Haney but also sets a negative example for his son, Devin, who is a professional boxer and should conduct himself with more dignity and respect towards his opponents.
Bill Haney’s critical comments regarding Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz’s victory not only show a lack of sportsmanship and respect towards his opponent but also highlight a sense of underestimation towards Cruz’s abilities in the ring. Haney’s remarks may have been intended to defend his son, Devin, but they come across as unnecessary and disrespectful towards other fighters in the division. Devin Haney’s skills and capabilities should speak for themselves, rather than relying on his father’s critical comments to make a statement in the boxing world.
